On the reaction day the stock moved 2.8 pts more than Nifty Microcap 250 and 2.5 pts more than its Industrial Products peers, over the same two closes: a difference in percentage points, not a measure of what the filing did.
Minute windows have no benchmark: there is no intraday index history to compare against.
Jost's Engineering reported a sharp decline in both standalone and consolidated results for Q2 and H1 FY25-26. Standalone revenue fell 19% YoY in Q2 to Rs. 4,776 lacs and 21% in H1 to Rs. 8,779 lacs. EBITDA dropped 56% in Q2 (to Rs. 299 lacs) and 54% in H1 (to Rs. 553 lacs), while standalone PAT plunged 70% in Q2 (to Rs. 123 lacs) and 76% in H1 (to Rs. 183 lacs). Consolidated numbers were similarly weak, with H1 PAT down 84% to Rs. 139 lacs. Management attributed the weak performance to postponement of some orders to the next quarter, though it highlighted orders in hand of Rs. 21,274 lacs and expects a better H2. Service revenues grew modestly by 5% YoY at the consolidated level.
This is a significantly negative result for shareholders — double-digit revenue declines combined with much sharper drops in profitability show severe margin compression. The positive order book of Rs. 21,274 lacs offers some hope for recovery in H2, but near-term sentiment on the stock is likely to be weak given the steep fall in earnings.
